[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmriSama:
Hey guys

I was up until recently the proud owner of an LG G4. Details of what happened to it can be found here: http://xdaforums.com/g4/general/expository-thread-bootloop-t3313771

As possibly getting the G4 fixed will take months, I'm (unfortunately) in the market for a new phone.

I use Cricket Wireless which means I have to buy all my phones upfront; This isn't bad though, as I view all my devices as investments that should be future-proof for ideally atleast 2-2.5 years. I had hoped that with buying a G4, I would be able to sustain it for 2+ years. But this doesn't look like it will be the case...

I'm looking to get a Nexus 6P. It looks like the best option for someone like me who needs a phone that is factory unlocked by default and has a good compatibility with all most all cellular providers In the US. So I just have a couple of questions:

1. Since the Nexus 6P is factory unlocked by default and has such a wide range of supported bands, it should work with Cricket (being that it is an ATT MVNO), right? (even if this seems obvious, I would like some reassurance before I buy).

2. What has been everyone's experienced with Google's protection, warranty, coverage, and RMA policies? This is very important in making sure that I'll always have SOMEONE to talk to if my phone breaks.

3. What's the situation on wireless hotspot with the 6P? I know its included in the OS, but it apparently doesn't work for all carriers. I've heard some people complain that it doesn't work on ATT, Cricket, and that they've used the SIM tool trick (from the 5X) to get hotspot to work (this was actually in another thread here at XDA).

4. Supposedly rooting your phone makes hotspot really easy and accessible, and I've heard that rooting/flashing the 6P is harmless and very very easy to do. Anyone can comment on this?

5. Are there any large, production-scale issues with the Nexus 6P? It's been a couple of months since its release so I hope a lot of the flaws that were present with the earlier manufactured devices are gone. (Once again, I'm trying to avoid an issue like Bootloop which had happened to many of the early adopters of the G4)

6. Finally, are there any other phones that others would recommend that come factory unlocked by default? I could buy a Galaxy S6 from Cricket, and then I would have the support of my carrier and all, but I definitely don't think the GS6 is a better phone than the 6P...

Thank you guys for reading!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] talkcc144:
Only thing I'm experiencing is not being able to send MMS.

What is the trick for the N6P to get hotspot service?

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickyray9:
1. Yes, it works with every carrier in the USA.

2. Mine hasn't broken, so I dunno

3. Out of the box, hotspot is determined by carrier. Install a custom rom, however, and they almost always have modified the build.prop to use hotspot with any carrier.

4. It's very easy, and it's even easier if you shell out a few bucks for Skipsoft Toolkit.

5. I've heard of bent 6Ps, but mine hasn't done that.

6. Nexus and OnePlusOne are both solid AT&T compatible devices that allow you to choose any carrier (except for CDMA on the OPO.) I would not get an MVNO branded phone unless I planned on being with that MVNO until the phone is outdated. The resale value is notoriously terrible when MVNOs get their hands on them.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmriSama:
This is great advice! Thank you. I totally forgot about OnePlus; aren't all their phones GSM factory unlocked?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ganesh420:
Quality and durability, so far, have been great for me. I switched from Virgin to T-mobile when I got it, so hotspot is included with my service and it has worked pretty well the couple of times I tried it. Google pay is handy so I don't have to whip my cards out to pay for stuff (just got a free Chromecast for using it 10 times this month). I am using stock ROM with out root (I just haven't really needed it for anything bad enough yet). There are a ton of cases, screen protectors, etc. available for the 6P. No TouchWiz is also a wonderful thing.

My partner did have an issue using speaker phone on his unit (we both pre-ordered and got early units). Google customer service with pretty good. He didn't want to be without a phone during the exchange, so they did hit his card for the purchase price again, but the replacement arrived two days later and within 5 days the money was credited back to him. We both have the extended warranties that say they'll replace the phones even if we break them or drown them, etc. for two years. Haven't had to test them on that so far, but it's good to have. It does cost you $80 deductible every time you need a replacement outside of manufacturers warranty.

I'd say the 6P is pretty solid investment, especially with the extended warranty. Even you wear the dam thing out in 23 months, cash in that warranty and get a fresh one. Also, check out T-mobiles no contract plans. I had planned on getting another pre-paid plan, but they offer a hell of deal for $50 post-paid yet no contract....You'll not likely run out data and you can turn their "Binge On" BS off. Good luck!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BIGWORM:
I would advise against getting the G4, as the LTE radios were carrier-locked, so at the time when I switched to Cricket back in June, I would've been **** outta luck. I have the 6P right now, Note 4 prior to the 6P, and I've had no problem fully utilizing the phone on Cricket's network. Your phone will be plug-and-play ready to go, as in popping in the SIM card (nano SIM), and you'll be good. Cricket sells the Nano SIM with Micro and standard sized adapter. Yes, your data download speed will be throttled to 8MBPS, but it's still plenty enough to get stuff done. If you're worried about the data cap (10GB on Pro plan), you can just reset your plan in the middle of the month once you reach your data cap, and the data counter will reset on Cricket's end. I use about 40GB a month, roughly. No worries there, either. Have fun =)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Warbuff:
I use it on cricket and it works fine. I use it in NYC and have lte everywhere. Hotspot works on my stock rooted nexus 6p. Let me know if you have any questions.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmriSama:
Supposedly if you pop out the SIM card, pop it back in, and then try to go into hotspot while its authenticating it'll work.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmriSama:
I mean, I did get the G4 and I thought it worked very well with Cricket. The LTE speeds were good but so were the H+ ones lol. And I was an early adopter too.

How do you reset your plan?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OmriSama:
But hotspot didn't work unrooted right? :(
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] l_stevens:
Not supposedly. It works. You just slide the sim tray out a little bit, put the enable hotspot setting on your screen, slide the tray back in, wait 3 seconds, and enable hotspot. Sometimes takes a few times for the timing, but always works.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Rob684:
I updated with the zip and had to flash the bok3 kernel to get it to reboot.

I was lucky after waiting for the "reboot", the screen went blank for several minutes at this time I pressed the power button and was brought back to ss splash screen which is how I got back to recovery to flash kernel. Not sure what happen. I think it flashed OE1 ss kernel, before I tried the bok3.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
When you flash it for the first time in recovery you still have to flash the kernel to boot back to rom then once you do that it will work. If it doesnt work you need to open install safestrap and manually install it
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] capone202:
Thinking about flashing this but had a question. Is there a way to flash a different kernel than the bok3 kernel since it automatically flashes this kernel upon exiting safestrap? That's the only thing holding me back right now. Thanks for this.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] jrkruse:
Why you should be running bok3 firmware for everything
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TheTrueGatorman:
Easy peasy.

Thank you for this. Nearly 24 months since this phone's release, and we still have development. Not bad for a "locked down" device.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] capone202:
Its not a big deal, MOAR doesn't seem to be the best with BOK and I was considering going back to BOG5, but I'll probably stick with it and flash this. Thanks for the reply.

Hi Community,

being in Austria the whole last week and received above mentioned update on Tuesday. No idea whether it has been distributed in entire Europe and I am quite surprised, that I do not find anything on the internet incl. this forum about this update.

The update came OTA (268MB) and it is saying that performance and stability should be improved.

Does anybody know, whether this is just an update of the Marshmallow Beta versione or is this already the stable release?

Thx a lot for your feedback and explanations!

[Verizon LG V10] mlg250:
I have an app that calls Ooma voicemail for a different # and then plays back the message out loud. When I retrieve a message, I know there will frequently be a phone number which I'll want to write down. I'm trying to use the split window to give me a half window of QuickMemo in which I would like to write the number being spoken through the player.

I put a split window shortcut on the bottom of the screen. However, no matter when I turn on the split window (before or after accessing the Ooma app), I get a panel of options: when I choose Quick Memo, it fills the screen (instead of halving it), and turns off the playback of the Ooma Voicemail. Seems to me there should be a way...but I can't find it.

I can see that actually, I'm trying to keep three apps open: the Ooma voicemail app, the playmusic app and then, the quickmemo app. Might there be a way before I revert to find a pen? :)

Thanks.

Flash Arter's kernel instead of using noble
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] androidddaaron:
Wells wait there gotta be more issues then that.

What would cause this reboots within a call

Twrp just rebooting soon a as swipe to flash any kernel.

I think the only way I can flash kernel is with flashify or a kernel flashing app

I don't have a pc with me to flash as a .tar

So I need it as a flashable zip and

What twrp Version works and what's the code name for tmobiles version

Can I get a solid link to a known version problem free and what art kernel are you mentioning ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] androidddaaron:
:thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown:

Did that and it immediately shut down phone to black nothingness! Almost mimicking a hard brick !

All I had to resort to was download mode and chose cancel to restart and forced manual recovery boot which I luckily had to restore back up .

Can anyone help me I Mean??

I have a O.S

I have a Bootable operating system Twrp don't work nothing flashes it just reboots into a loop when trying to flash anything . I can only reboot into running operating system when I choose reboot system in twrp.

It has to be a wrong version or maybe because I have OKC Update .

Or I just need philz ,but can I flash philz in a zip format or is it only available as a TAR?

Many readers not to many have good insight.

At the very least just want the stock recovery .img and stock kernel so I can go to stock this phone is so problematic to ROOT !

I am rooted if anyone cared to read rather then take it all out of context .Said clearly I had working SU.

My issue was with TWRP recovery bootlooping evidently noble kernel is garbage .

Don't matter now Philz rec and art kernel did the trick.

I fixed my own issue which is only what one of the 25 views could have simply say in the first place.

And BTW what's wrong with you "BRO " over "HERE" Gettin salty with people. .. worst of all on a black berry .

lmao:eek:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note5] androidddaaron:
No no no ... you can have working root and a flaked out TWRP recovery ive seen it a million times just like I told the other commenter whos just here to be a big **** talker !

My issue was with TWRP previousally when I tried and felt like being kind with my explanation that it was Bootlooping During "swipe to install" any zip.

As said before if someone could have simply just helped and said what to do where to find it and how in a 123 manner I could have resolved and closed the thread !

Either way for anyone reading this

DON'T USE NOBLE KERNEL OR TWRP

Them instructions links should be taken down .

Philz touch and arter kernel = Seamlessly rooted Note 5 with a recovery that flashes as it should.

Hey there, I've had this phone for two days now and since the start I had a bit of an issue well nothing major just want to tell ye anyway and see if anyone has this problem too.

So ever since the feature "always show touches" I've enabled it on every phone I got. On the Moto x style since I got it when I type it would frequently show random touches on the screen even though I never touch that part. Just wondering if anyone else has this problem or is my phone just faulty.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nostromoo:
I am developing a Pocket Outlook add-in, and I have a problem on a Windows Mobile 6 smartphone. It's actually an O2 Xda with Windows Mobile 6 Professional (CE OS 5.2.1238 Build 17745.0.2.3).

The problem is that when I try to access the message body, by calling OpenPropery and supplying PR_CE_MIME_TEXT. This returns S_OK, but the message stream is empty i.e. 0 bytes.

This works correctly in both the Windows Mobile 6 emulators, and the Windows Mobile 5 emulators, and on a Windows Mobile 5 smartphone. I am connecting to an exchange server to access messages.

My question is why might OpenProperty return an empty stream even though the message clearly has a message body? I did try with PR_BODY_W too, but the results are the same.

I noticed when I installed our SSL certificate onto the smartphone there was an extra security message to go through before it installed the certificate. The emulator just installed it after I clicked on it. Maybe the problem is in some way security related?

Does the PR_BODY_HTML works?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nostromoo:
Sadly no :( it returns MAPI_E_NOT_FOUND

Jamie
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nostromoo:
Solved

Actually tene you were nearly right. In the end I have modified my code to firslty call GetProps passing PR_MSG_STATUS. This will indicate either MSGSTATUS_HAS_PR_BODY or MSGSTATUS_HAS_PR_CE_MIME_TEXT. I didn't know about this previously so I hadn't called it.

From there I then try to access either PR_CE_MIME_TEXT or PR_BODY, depending on the message status returned.

Actually to access PR_BODY I have to firstly use PR_BODY_A and if that fails try PR_BODY_W because there doesn't seem to be a way to determine which is present. My DLL is a Unicode DLL, and PR_BODY on its own didn't work (because this maps to PR_BODY_W which doesn't exist), I explicitly had to use PR_BODY_A and then convert it using MultiByteToWideChar.

Silly me for thinking I should expect consistant behaviour.
